Protect and monetize your lens work with instant, granular permissions. No monthly subs—only pay for the specific usage rights you pull from the chain. Photographers earn per-interaction while users get a verifiable EIP-3009 receipt as their legal proof-of-license. Paying 0.01 USDC over x402 returns a signed provenance certificate for the work.
